Most of CT dismisses fintech or doesn't even know about it

But fintech is trying to solve the exact problems crypto is tackling now

I built a fintech lending platform in Singapore in 2018, which is still running

But crypto could actually improve this business by a large margin

The problem is that lending is a local business. You need local banking licenses, local credit data, local collections, local legal enforcement

We launched in Singapore and expanded to Philippines, Vietnam, Indonesia

Each country meant rebuilding the entire stack. New licenses took 18 months, and came with new partnerships, new risk models, new everything

Cost to expand: $5M per country

Crypto changes this because the infrastructure is global by default.

EDU Chain runs the same smart contracts in Philippines as Singapore.

The only local piece is fiat off-ramps, and those are getting easier every month.

A student in Manila can access the same loan products as someone in Singapore, funded by the same global liquidity pool, secured by the same onchain credentials.

All of this in one single ecosystem.

@hanshanhk next chapter.

We're on a voyage, hunting new liquidity for $EDU.

The first beast will be onboarded soon.

But there's more than one fish in the sea.

Well put. If you take a long-term view on DeFi and want to handle trillions in active loans, serving 8 billion humans, the curator model is obviously the only way.

A DAO-managed lending pool might work for a few billion, but it is just one curator among others.

Balancer hack been unfortunate, very diligent and talented team. Hope the team recovers from the event and continues to innovate in DeFi.

DeFi is a multi-trillion dollar opportunity.

@opencampus_xyz @tether @sortedwallet Education for everyone.

[Open Campus @opencampus_xyz]

Access to education should not depend on geography.

Yet, across Africa millions of talented students lack the resource to reach their potential.

Open Campus is partnering with @tether and @sortedwallet to change that.

[Open Campus @opencampus_xyz]

We're expanding the reach of education finance with new partners.

More students will get the support they need, in places where impact matters most.

Another step towards making EduFi truly global is just around the corner.
